  They picked it up.

  What a play by Wayne to get the TD. Huge day for him.
• Laley23

  

  So who hates Indy for going from Manning to Luck???
  
  I know it will happen with quite a few.

  What's hilarious about all this to me is I am getting flamed on Browns threads for wanting to lose and get our Andrew Luck. People are calling me a faux fan because I'm not upset with the L's piling up so we can get the #1 overall pick.
  
  I keep saying, "I bet Indy fans are all realllllllly upset with all those losses last year!"

  I would say I am rooting against Irsay. I have no problem with Luck. But hate the way they handled Manning's exit. He got them a Super Bowl and built the stadium.

  Thats a cool theory and all, but there isn't an Andrew Luck in this year's draft, at least one that is discovered. The thing about Andrew Luck is that he stayed an extra year and everybody already knew he would be a stud. Could be Barkley though.

  Boo-fucking-hoo. They released him so that he could sign with whatever team he wanted, thats a good fucking deal if you ask me.

  The thing is I would have no problem bailing on weedon if there was a Andrew luck in this draft. There isn't that big time qb in this draft sadly. I would rather fill bigger needs like a DE/ olb/ corner and possibly receiver.

  Irsay handled the Manning situation like any successful business man with a functioning brain would have.

  I find it hard to root against either of them.
  
  Cam Newton is 2-14 passing so far today.

  You guys need a big time WR. Hard to evaluate how good your QB is when he has no #1

  Ehh I disagree. Manning still has fuel in the tank. Broncos will make the playoffs and have a chance to win the Super Bowl. The Colts and Luck will be watching at home

  Tell that to Tannehill, Gabbert, Wilson, or Rivers.

  Gordon has the potential the be that guy. He showed a glimpse today of that. What the browns need is that veteran guy you can count on, on 3rd down

  Yeah for 1 year not 14-15 years down the line. It was a no brainer decision

  NE offense looks a lot better

  Irsay was awesome about it. I dont see where you are coming from. At all.

  This year. Talk to me in 5 years. 10 years. You take Luck 100% of the time. Manning built Indy, yes...that doesnt mean you let him hang around and handcuff the franchise.

  This +1. Colts absolutely did everything right. And this may sound crazy but I really don't think they would be much better with Peyton this year. Luck is legit.

  KC fans cheered after Cassel got knocked out of the game
  
  Eric Winstons comments afterwards
  

  "We are athletes," Winston said. "We are not gladiators. This isn't the Roman Coliseum. People pay their hard-earned money to come in here, and I believe they can boo. They can cheer. They can do whatever they want. We're lucky to play this game. A game. It's hard economic times, and they still pay the money to do this, but when somebody gets hurt there are long-lasting ramifications to the game we play -- long-lasting ramifications.
  "I've already come to the understanding that I won't live as long because I play this game, and that's OK. That's a choice I've made. That's a choice all of us have made. But when you cheer somebody getting knocked out, I don't care who it is, and it just so happened to be Matt Cassel, it's sickening. It's 100 percent sickening, and I've been in some rough times on some rough teams, and I've never been more embarrassed in my life to play football than in that moment right there."
  
  "I get emotional about it because these guys work their butts off," Winston said. "Matt Cassel hasn't done anything to you people, hasn't done anything to the media writers that kill him, hasn't done anything wrong to the people that come out here and cheer him. If he's not the best quarterback, he's not the best quarterback and that's OK. But he's a person, and he got knocked out in a game, and we've got 70,000 cheering that he got knocked out.
  "Boo him all you want, boo me all you want. Throw me under the bus, tell me I'm doing a bad job. Say I got to protect him more, but if you're one of those people that were out there cheering or even smiled when he got knocked out, I just want to let you know and I want everybody to know that I think it's sickening and disgusting."

  Well said..

  NE with a running game is lethal. I don't understand how Manning hasn't gone crazy yet, has he ever had a decent defense?
• Terry_Tate

  

  Why does Chris Myers still do NFL games? He sucks.
  
  And Cam Newton has been beyond awful today.
• Azubuike24

  

  I'm a fan, but Cam Newton has been horrible thus far. Blaine Gabbert is worse though.

  I agree. Currently, they would be 3-1 not 2-2 (based on Peyton beating Jacksonville). But there is no guarantee they win this game with Peyton.
  
  Peyton wasnt taking the Colts to the Super Bowl. It isnt a FULL rebuild, but its a rebuild. You get the QB and go young.
• Mulva

  

  49ers put up 621 yards on Buffalo today. Just silly offensive numbers all around.
